Chapter 509 Private Company Lands on the Moon

While the outside world was turbulent, Dong Chen didn't care about it. As long as a nuclear bomb didn't fly directly towards him, it wouldn't be a big deal.

What he is looking at now is a major event, a major stage event in the earth's aerospace industry.

In the cargo loading and unloading workshop of the aircraft, Dong Chen was inspecting the loading and unloading process under the leadership of Liu Linlang, general manager of Arc Light Aerospace, and several key managers. He stopped by to see the fifteen astronauts who were going to land on the moon.

There is no one who directly has the courage and strength to send fifteen astronauts to the moon together.

From the United States' first moon landing to the last Chinese moon landing, only fourteen people landed on the moon. The number of people who landed on the moon by Arclight Aerospace was definitely not intentional by one person more than the previous total.

It's just that Arclight Aerospace currently only has three available aerospace transport aircraft. After calculation, the most suitable personnel in the initial stage is fifteen, and one aircraft is suitable for transporting five moon landing personnel.

Looking at the goods being slowly hoisted into the warehouse, Dong Chen asked Liu Linlang next to him, "These goods and equipment should be loaded today, right? Is there enough time for the final inspection?"

"No problem, Chairman. It's completely within the planned time. It can be installed today. There is enough time reserved for the final inspection." Liu Linlang replied as she walked, "Mr. Sun often talks to us about the concept of time and planning. We are all strictly enforcing it.”

"That's good..." Dong Chen was talking when he suddenly saw a staff member pushing a cart over.

It was the goods sent to the warehouse, and it was marked "snacks". Dong Chen saw a few familiar boxes in the cart. His eyes couldn't help but change, and he looked at the logistics of this mission next to him speechlessly. The supervisor said, "Have you really prepared spicy strips for the astronauts? It seems that they are specially customized from the manufacturer."

The logistics director of the lunar base mission was a little embarrassed, "Ahem, the astronauts mentioned this to us... After our discussion, we still prepared spicy sticks for them, which is still very good for their psychological happiness."

"And there are doctors accompanying the team who will check their physical conditions at any time. If it is determined to have an impact, they will be asked to stop eating immediately."

Looking at the somewhat embarrassed logistics manager, Dong Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "Nothing, I just want to ask, aren't they happy eating in the space station? This stuff is really good for food."

"Let's go and see our moon heroes who like to eat spicy strips."

"Okay, Chairman, they are all doing final physical examinations at the medical center. Please come here." The staff member responsible for leading the way said.

The fifteen people who will be permanently stationed on the moon have been training. They are mainly from the last global recruitment. They are aerospace personnel specially prepared by Arc Light Aerospace for later space exploration. They are all talents in various fields.

Base construction on the moon is not just about space workers in the construction of the space station. On the moon, they not only have to build bases, but also carry out various geological surveys, lunar exploration and a series of other activities.

These activities will provide data for later construction. Later construction work is likely to be modified based on these more detailed data, so construction workers alone are not enough.

As soon as Dong Chen and the others came in, they saw Yang Nianming sitting in the rest area waiting. Dong Chen said with a smile, "Yang Nianming, we meet again. How about it? I said you will be the first group of people to land on the moon."

Yang Nianming quickly stood up and said, "Yes, Chairman, since I have rich experience in space construction, they approached me and asked me to participate in this mission."

"Haha, don't be nervous. Sit down and talk." Dong Chen came over and sat next to him and asked him to sit down too. "Is your health okay? After all, you just came back from space and didn't get much rest."

"It's no problem, Chairman. There was no problem in the previous inspections. I am in good health. There should be no problem this time," Yang Nianming said.

Dong Chen knew this. After all, every astronaut who wants to enter space will be injected with corresponding strengthening drugs to enhance the astronaut's adaptation to the zero-gravity state and their resistance to cosmic rays.

And now more and more space missions have confirmed this. Compared with the station personnel of the International Space Station who have not been injected with strengthening drugs before, the space engineers of Arc Light Aerospace return to Earth in much better condition, and their physical fitness weakens faster. Also much slower.

In this process, Dong Chen's contribution was quite large, so he paid a lot of attention to this aspect.

Afterwards, Dong Chen also greeted the other astronauts and met the two female spies, Natasha and Wanda.

Natasha is one of the doctors accompanying the team this time, and she also has good attainments in the biological field. While ensuring the safety of the team's lives, she must also conduct research on the living conditions of humans on extraterrestrial planets.

Wanda is a psychiatrist. It goes without saying how important the mental health of astronauts on alien planets is. Moreover, she also majors in general clinical medicine and is one of the team doctors.

When they saw Dong Chen, they behaved as if they were seeing an idol. Even No. 1 could not tell through the most detailed facial micro-expression analysis and pupil analysis that he was acting. This shows that the initial "political education" and later The effects are very useful.

Two days later, under the spotlight, the first manned lunar landing plan of a private aerospace company, the first and largest manned lunar landing of mankind, and the construction plan of mankind's first lunar base, accompanied by three space transport aircraft of Arc Light Aerospace The takeoff begins.

After dozens of hours of flight, the three transport planes safely entered the moon's orbit. People on the earth could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After a few rounds in the quiet lunar orbit, the three aerospace transport planes all opened their cargo bays and released three fat missile-like lunar landing spacecrafts.

The fifteen astronauts who were going to land on the moon were all inside. After manually adjusting the attitude of the three lunar landing spacecraft, they landed towards the predetermined location.

Since there is no atmosphere on the moon, an airplane-shaped aerospace transport aircraft is completely unfeasible, at least an aircraft using a rear injection system. Moreover, the aerospace transport aircraft's center of gravity is not appropriate and cannot fall vertically and stand on the ground, so This kind of carrier spacecraft is also used for transportation between the lunar surface and orbit.

However, since the moon's gravity is only one-sixth of the earth's, it is much easier to escape the moon's gravity than the earth's. Moreover, this kind of carrier spacecraft is reusable. It can be reused like an aerospace aircraft as long as it is refueled.

This kind of carrier spacecraft is divided into three parts. The upper part is the manned cockpit, the middle part is the cargo compartment, and the bottom part is the injection system. It can carry people and cargo to and from the moon surface and orbit at the same time, which is very convenient.

After the construction of the lunar base is completed, there will be more professional launch vehicles. For now, we will just make do with it. In the early stage, things were dropped from orbit, and there were not many things that needed to be returned.

After the carrier spacecraft landed, six more living cabins and cargo compartments with slow-descent devices were released from the cargo bays of the three aerospace transport planes, and they also fell after them.

This is all the items from the first batch, where the early moon landing crews will live and work.
